Charity works! From our minds to yours with love :)

We've just participated in the annual charity ball in Oregon/USA with our special product to benefit the work of the Feral Cat Coalition of Oregon.

Charity is good and we are keen of providing the same services to like-minded organizations and people who are interested in making lives of cats and other animals better.

Cheers!

D&AD Professional Awards 2012...

This years winner in branding category is a "John st." agency.  We like their strategy a lot!

Kamakura house and Maru

As being huge fans of the "Maru the Cat" from Japan, we've spotted another uplifting video from his owners. Apart from usual cute antiques courtesy of the Maru, it features a well-designed cat house made in the best minimalist traditions of Japanese craftsmen, nothing more, nothing less. It appears to be made of corrugated cardboard but looks solid enough to withstand an attack from Maru.  And if you can read Japanese, here's their website.

Our only criticism would be the size of the pod, it could have been a wee bit bigger, which is clearly visible on the video...  But who we are to know what cat wants!

Spot the Cat

Here, at Cats & Pods research facility, we were inspired by our recent outing to the Tate Modern gallery and created a new visual identity for one of our pods.  Totally nocturnal polka-dot version in extremely limited edition.
As usual testing of the unit was conducted by our certified quality inspector Lucas who blended really well into the new colour scheme.  Seal of approval granted with subsequent after-work nap.  Good job Luka and Cats & Pods team!

Interview for the "Floppycats"!

We just had an interview with "Floppycats", a home for all things Ragdoll.  Never heard of them before? You must be joking... You better do it right now, or...!

Thanks Jenny!

We are on Modern Cat!

Our flagship product "Crash Pad" was featured on Modern Cat, an amazing web-site dedicated entirely (well, almost) to the designs for living with cats.  They share the same principles and values that we do so follow them now!

Big thanks to the Kate Benjamin, Owner of the Moderncat Enterprises, LLC and Jennifer Schmidt from "JennasRedRhino" who introduced us to them.

New prototype is ready for testing!

New prototype is undergoing a series of tests by our experienced tester Lucas. He will report his results later on this month. Do not disturb, work in progress :)
